Highly recommend.
My 4 year old daughter loves the class. It's built up her confidence, balance and agility. It challenged her more than dancing classes she had prior to this, which was what she needed.
Our four year old daughter has had a wonderful time training with SJJA Hurstville. The classes have considerably improved her strength, coordination and confidence.
The instructors are always encouraging and hands-on with the kids, and the studio is clean and tidy. We’d have no reservations recommending SJJA to other parents!
I’ve had the privilege of training at SJJA Hurstville for the past five years. I began as a white belt and was honoured to earn my purple belt here, a milestone I’ll always treasure. Both of my young daughters also trained at the gym and thoroughly enjoyed their time on the mats.
SJJA Hurstville is a true family-run academy, and from day one, you feel like part of that family. George, the owner, has been a mentor to me both on and off the mats, offering valuable guidance in training and in life. The gym maintains a safe, respectful environment, never tolerating overly aggressive behaviour. I’ve always felt secure while developing my skills, and the professors ensure students are pushed appropriately without compromising safety, despite their own impressive competition backgrounds.
The kids’ program is exceptional, producing many high-achieving competitors who represent the gym proudly at a national level. The facilities are always spotless, thanks to the owners’ diligent hygiene standards.
If not for having to move away, I would have happily trained here for life. My daughters and I will truly miss the training, the people, and the family we found at SJJA Hurstville.
We’ve been training at SJJA Hurstville for 4 years and love it! The coaches are great—super knowledgeable and friendly. They make learning BJJ fun and easy to understand.
As parents, we appreciate how the gym focuses on building confidence and discipline while keeping the atmosphere light and enjoyable. The kids have made great friends here too.
Highly recommend for any family looking for a top-notch BJJ experience with the perfect balance of learning and fun!
Absolute world class black belt trainers and friendly family atmosphere. Excellent kids classes with international award winning dedicated, kind and patient instructors. Adults classes are challenging with a friendly and varied mix of students of many ages and experiences to train with. Senior black belt instructors have a mix of other martial arts backgrounds including Olympic Wrestling, Capoeira, Judo and other stand up styles that really give the advantage of training with enhanced perspective from different styles, not pure BJJ only style. In true martial arts spirit, they embrace the unique perspective of respect, honor and ethics to develop the wonderful family-centric community they have built over the years. The gym itself is super clean with washing machine on site for uniforms. The white mats make the space inviting and bright, the adjacent courtyard provides fresh air, a lovely green backdrop and airy atmosphere. Highly recommended!
